I am not a pro in linux,
I have a new system, where I installed Opensuse 11.4. I am connected with a LAN cable. The output of ifconfig is:
lo Link encap:Local Loopback

where I am not connected to the internet. Then I tried
the output of uname -a is :

and the output of lspci -nn is:

Any help appreciated.
I’ve gone through https://downloadcenter.intel.com/download/15817 and downloaded the zip file. Using a USB I transferred it on to a target system (where the network card is not being detected).
Followed the instructions in README. There I need to
make install
As per the instructions I went into the source directory in the downloaded folder, after the
make install, It says Makefile:64: *** Kernel header files not in any of the expected locations. Makefile:65: *** Install the appropriate kernel development package, e.g. Makefile:66: *** kernel-devel, for building kernel modules and try again. Stop.
